New Transformers 2 trailer discussion thread (part 3)

[EpicBacons]

Optimus holds the higher moral ground and won't kill his brother, that's why he was willing to sacrifice himself in the first movie.

Not necessarily, especially in the 1986 movie.

Optimus Prime: "One shall stand, one shall fall."

Megatron: "Why throw away your life so recklessly?"

Optimus Prime: "That is a question you should ask yourself, Megatron."

Megatron: "No! I will crush you with my bare hands!"


I absolutely loved the first one, but I thought Prime's personality in the first Tranformers movie (2007) was rather weak. I mean, aren't Prime and Megatron supposed to be even? Prime is just so much more bad ass in G1, but I guess they wanted to adjust Prime to fit in a certain way. Other than that, I fucking loved Transformers (07').

"One shall stand, one shall fall" can have another meaning. Just because something falls, it doesn't mean it dies. It means that it give up power, at least in my books.

That's the biggest reason why I love movie's Optimus most. That Gen. Francis X. Hummel attitude..

It's called "Excitment+Hype" my friend. (also known as a "nerdgasm")

Yes it looks completely fake as does the whole movie, it looks more like a cartoon with sam dribbling like a kid on a sugar rush, youd think he would of matured a bit by now. I think this film is not going to be what people expect, if you like the trailer, good for you, but I think its weak.

Then lets see you do something better. Until then, stop asking for a miracle and shut up.

It is a miracle the second was made, as the writers said in the interview a while ago there is enough history for a story but if they didn't get it correct they wouldn't of made it.
And I am sure they wouldn't of gone ahead with it if it felt weak.
The CGI is just a huge bonus as if it had been in the wrong hands the CGI team could of murdered it. Went to watch Dragonball Evolution the other day, that is weak and that has the most lamest sets & CGI ever.

Actually, thats not what I meant lol. I meant that Optimus compared to the cartoons was just much more stronger and had the ability to fight back. In the 2007 movie I thought he got his arse kicked around quite a bit (probably not as much as we have seen in the ROTF trailers). Just a thought.

Loving it, well done.
Loved the touch where it said revenge when it shot from Sam Witwicky when he picked the fragment up.

[EpicBacons]

I was watching the trailer a couple of times (1080p), and I noticed when Megatron said "Crush you!" to that girl, and that girl is Mikaela Banes aka Megan Fox. It definately doesn't look like the one who play's as Alice the Pretender, I noticed Megan Fox' lips from a mile away not to mention she was wearing a black leather coat for a good portion of the trailer.

Wow, that was nicely executed, great job!

[BigChap]

It's cool what Empire did but it is just WAY too much info. Thankfully I restrained myself to only read 2 lines of the article. Until after the release every single crew and cast member should keep thier mouths shut!

Just a quick apology dude i realise i should have maybe have put SPOILER on that link.

Hmm... does he really say "Crush you?" I thought it was something Cybertronian he said? To me, the girl doesn´t look like Megan Fox at all, except for the fact she´s a brunette... Maybe I´m blind but I just don´t see it.

[Mailman]

Btw... The constructicons are just... I mean... they´re the coolest thing I´ve ever seen. Long Haul looks so effin huge and totally badass, Mixmaster is awesome as well... Man I can´t wait...

That's definately Megan Fox, only a few in Hollywood have lips like that - Jessica Alba and maybe Keira Knightley. Neither of them in Transformers.


As for the "Crush you" thing, some one on these forums said it - and then I thought perhaps it is. Howeve, you may be right, it is probably the language Cybertronian.

[Mailman]

And perhaps Isabel Lucas has lips like that as well? I must say... I personally think it is Alice the pretender But that´s just my two cents.

[littleman794]

good point, maybe it is her...

[primusnine]

But the face and hair look mad different. And the eyes. It can't be Fox.

And may I just say, holy crap it's cold and I have to go to work. Sadface.
